Time off 

After two weeks down with back pain, I got very stressed. I decided it is time to get away by myself and have some real rest and relaxation (not forced by illness or accident) but time to just "Be". I will be staying a week at a rustic isolated cabin in the peaceful woods outside Berea, Ky. and  getting in touch with nature and enjoying the beauty of God's creation. Please do not send mail this week, as I do not want to be overwhelmed as soon as I get back. Have been busy putting together a book entitled Women Emerging Courageous by authors on Emerging Courageous online Magazine. It is finished and ready to send to a publisher. Any suggestions appreciated. See you in a week hopefully all rested and raring to go. Hope you find the following quotes inspirational. I did. Peace and God Bless, Marilyn
